- Book Synopsis
- Focuses on the substantial role of US military advisors to the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA) from 1946 until 1953 in one of America's early attempts at nation building. Gibby describes ROKA's structure, mission, challenges, and successes, thereby linking the South Korean army and their US advisors to the traditional narrative of this 'forgotten war'.
